Cotton floss candy
Spirits spread quicker
Sanguine is fancy
Sweet treats fit kinder

He was cotton candy on some days
And dental floss on others —
A guilty pleasure, sweet and light
Or wholesome, fresh breath to set a day right...

White fluffy clouds sailing in the sky
I used to wish I could float on them  
Or may be eat them like candy floss
Now I don’t see them any more
For I am cooped up in my cabin
And over my screen bent low....

The capsule burst open
  Fuzzy floss spills out
Soft white parachutes 
  for small seeds that yearn
     to float away like dreams

What is it about a thong
That men break out in song
Is it the sight you see
Exposed butt cheeks
Making weak of the strong

And for my dear lady
Wearing it is crazy
It’s like floss for your tail
Makes you chap and yell
But he likes it so no shading...

I do not think a rose 
would be beauty with green gloss
It is the red that captures the soul 
And likewise to my red rose 
The way you are is enough, its boss 
The way you are is beautiful' It's Floss
The way you are is a rose
You could be sold as love, Rose....

An artist rolls his brush full of vibrant color across a Canvas
A window to a distant world soon forms, a Catalog or Atlas.
A land of curious blooms, and candy floss
Odd bits of colorful stalk brim floating moss.
This land of flamboyant fun, and pinkish bananas....

With candy floss and sticks of rock
Funfair rides made to shock 

Rollercoaster big fast rides 
All make you hid your eyes

The carousel and kiddies swings 
Hoop darts and all those things 

The Sandy' Beach and cockles too
These are the things I like to do...

No Kiss me Quicks, no giggling girls,
no candy floss, no strawberry swirls,
no shuggy boats or bright blue skies
no donkey rides or coconut shies,
no arcade fun, no fishing off the pier,
no slot machines, no ginger beer.
November blues, an empty prom,
to sunny Spain they’ve all moved on....
